Physical Education & Self Defence Trainers'Course: Level One

I am glad to announce that time has come for Taiho Jutsu Namibia to finally present the long awaited Three (3) months (Level One) Physical Education & Self Defence Trainers’ Course. Applicants will shortly be informed in details about requirements pertaining to attending the course in question. The question for now, though, is what’s Level One Physical Education and Self Defence Trainer’s Course?

My Source of Inspiration in Taiho Jutsu

Long before I even had heard the term Taiho Jutsu, the Namibian Government in partnership with the British Council had had plans made for me to study Physical Education and Self Defence in England, thanks to my solid martial arts background and a reasonable level of school education. They did everything from travelling arrangements to my study financing and taking care of my unforeseen expenses prior to putting me on that flight to Heathrow.

It was a joy ride all the way until I reached CPU, Harrogate – North Yorkshire, is when I realised the depth of studies I had let myself into. To start up with, I was the only African fella at the whole campus. Yet my African English accent wasn’t helping very much. So I worked twice harder until I could make lemonade just like everybody else.

But right there and then, almost at once I realised that I certainly didn’t have a problem with neither self defence nor martial arts, but all the problems in the world with physical education, particularly in the

fields of sports studies, and sports sciences, pertaining to subjects such as leisure studies, community sport/arts/outdoor pursuits, human movement studies/anatomy and physiology, recreation management, and first aid, since we weren’t studying those things during my time at primary and secondary schooling in Africa. Again I worked diligently more than all my classmates put together. Studying all the time to a point where my colleagues started making fun of me. Saying that I truly loved books very much, perhaps that was my first time seeing them! But even then it still took me like forever before I started building momentum vital for earning good grades in physical education. Of course, I was number 2 in the whole class when it came to Taiho Jutsu sport & police Taiho jutsu self defence, thanks to my karate and ninjutsu background. My grades in self defence were always above average no matter what technique Alan Montgomery and Sensei Brian Eustace threw at us. But I hated physical education very much because I sucked at it! 

See, in England for example, people go to higher institutions of learning to study for diplomas or degrees in physical education. And that involves the study and practice of organised sports, athletic activities, swimming, first aid & lifesaving, gymnastics, aerobics and dance, dietary and physiotherapy, outdoor adventurous sports activities, and active lifestyle pursuit. And that was definitely like brain surgery to a traditional African bloke like I was before I had gone there!

But where there is a will there is a way; that I had comprehended as time of burying myself into the books went by!  Due to studying all the time even at dinner tables and sometimes in bathrooms too, I instantaneously started getting real good marks in physical education. I got my head straight at Yew Tree Lane and more so at University of Chester, formerly known as Chester College, where I completed my endless tons of modules in Human Anatomy. It was at Chester College where I majored in the functions of a human body in relation to the essence of physical education. By mastering such a sport science, I understood the concept of physical education which can simply be defined as a tool to lay solid foundations in children and improve the adult’s metabolism for lasting health and enhanced quality of life.

During school recess, however, I frequently visited my friends, Thomas and Cora, the owner of a private Physical Education & Self Defence (Taiho Jutsu) school in Hamburg, Germany. And there I helped present classes in physical education and self defence to minors and adults alike as a professional teacher I was, of course. 
  

Back at home base, Yew Tree Lane, CPU, I practiced teaching physical education and self defence on my peer group and school going children at nearby schools in Harrogate. And for my final teaching practice appraisals, I was sent to Bruche Police College in Warrington, Manchester, where I spent enormous time dishing out classes in physical education and self defence to police recruits while under constant

scrutiny by senior physical educationalists, administrators, and policy-makers and activity providers. Luckily by then I was already a professional teacher, even my African English accent worked perfectly well that nobody wondered whether I was African or not! Not even those mocking police recruits believed me when I openly testified that I was African.

Nonetheless, after successfully completing the course, I flew back to Namibia where I spent the next 16 years teaching physical education and self defence at all national police colleges across Namibia. I was so effective at my work that it didn’t take long before the University of Namibia (UNAM) heard of me and therefore arranged with my bosses that I’d present classes over there, which I did with pleasure. But unfortunately as time went on, due to bad politics in the police, I relinquished my commission with the government. And much later I merged with friends and established a private learning institution in physical education and self defence for every living person regardless of their nationality, occupation, gender and age.

We even accept toddlers on condition they are accompanied by their mothers to attend either swimming or physical fitness training before they become of age to participate independently in sports of their choosing. We also present physical education and self defence trainer courses to military, law-enforcement agencies, and security companies in Namibia and elsewhere on the African soil and beyond. It’s only at Taiho Jutsu schools where you’ll find senior citizens up to above 60 years old taking up physical education or self defence classes at their own pace in their groups.

So having studied physical education and self defence intensively in England, I am more than competent enough to work out a physical training and self defence programme for anybody or any organisation, even for a team of well evenly pregnant women. I’m basically a well trained doctor for physical education and self defence and I’m possibly the only one of my kind in Namibia, if not Africa so far, thanks to the Namibian Government and British Council.

Taiho Jutsu

Taiho Jutsu (sport) and Police Taiho Jutsu (career self defence sport) put together is the real deal in martial arts across the world. It’s only in Taiho Jutsu where all martial arts techniques go unrestricted. 

The use of wrist controls, arm controls, holds and throws, firearms use, firearm retention, and disarm, locks used in Ju Jutsu, Aikido, Judo, karate and Ninjutsu, to mention but a few styles,  make Taiho Jutsu an ideal art not only for law enforcement agencies but all martial artists across the world, regardless of the dominating dojo style.

I Live For Taiho Jutsu

Taiho Jutsu became officially recognised in 1947 after a tremendous effort coordinated by Tokyo Japanese Police involving redundant teachers from various banned martial arts styles across Japan. It was created specifically for the police and military forces, and for that reason, it’s still unknown to many parts of the world, particularly Africa.

Yet those of us in Taiho Jutsu who can promote its background usually mention only a few martial arts styles within its foudation, starting from Ju Jutsu, Aikido, Judo, karate and Ninjutsu without extending the courtesies to kendo, Kenjutsu, sumo, and Kenpo, due to fear that people might think we’re probably exaggerating or something! But reality of the matter is that all Japanese martial arts techniques are found in Taiho Jutsu sport and Police Taiho Jutsu career self defence. The reason Taiho Jutsu isn’t celebrated in Africa therefore can only be concluded as lack of information, otherwise Taiho Jutsu has become well known and liked not only in the confinement of peacekeeping forces but civilians alike worldwide.

I also wouldn’t have known about Taiho Jutsu if I hadn’t studied in England. Luckily for me at that point in time I already had Karate and Ninjutsu under my belly, so it was very easy for me to just move over with everything I had in traditional martial arts to the leadership of Sensei Brian Eustace of Police Taiho Jutsu and later Sensei Ross Jackson of Taiho Jutsu sport. Basically, what I like most about Taiho Jutsu is that as a practitioner you don’t waste time on restraining a villain fighter at all. Even I right now in Taiho Jutsu can’t or couldn’t last 10 seconds fighting anybody for real because in Taiho Jutsu, fighting is like a crocodile swallowing whatever is thrown at it without hurting it. Yet everybody in Africa knows everything there is to know about Sensei Steven Seagal (Aikido 7th Dan, Kenjutsu, Karate, Judo) the same goes for Sensei or rather Shihan Sho Kosugi (Ninjutsu, Judo, Shindō-jinen-ryū Karate, Kendo, Iaido, Kobudo, Aikido, - above average) and Sensei Wesley Snipes of course, (Shotokan Karate – 5 Dan, Ju-Jutsu),etc. But what many people don’t know is that both Sensei Steven Seagal, Sho Kosugi, and Wesley Snipes are having in common as far as Japanese martial arts is concerned, is basically Taiho Jutsu at the most high level of expertise in general. And that’s why even in their most celebrated movies, they prefer to represent the policing side of stories engaged in, not the villain side. Of course, we still have got Taiho Jutsu representatives such as Jason Statham (Ju-Jutsu), Dolph Lundgren (Kyokushin & Goju-Ryu Karate – 3rd Dan, Judo), and Sensei Sonny Chiba (Goju-Ryu – 2 dan, Kyokushin Karate – 4 dan, Ninjutsu  – 4 Dan, Judo – 2 Dan, Kenpo – 1 Dan, Kendo – 1 Dan).

  

What on Earth is Taiho Jutsu?

I was born and bred in Africa, Namibia to be exact, and I have done so much for the Japanese martial arts promotion in Africa to such an extent that I am more or less known as the father of modern karate in Namibia because 70 percent of top karateka experts in the country were all trained by me! I smile each time I hear how Namibia is leading the way at international karate championships because that’s what I had envisioned some 30 years ago when I started promoting the Japanese martial arts in Namibia.  

Of course, this Miss Patrycja_Pszczelinska, a Taiho Jutsu Instructor, and so it is a common sight in her country seeing her dressed like that while at her work. See, I had gone abroad to Japan, England, and America, studying the martial arts wherever I saw fit, thanks to many Japanese, English and American martial arts instructors who believed in me. Unfortunately many of them such as Sensei Brian Eustace and many others to mention a few are no longer with us and that breaks my heart.

However, during all those years of my time promoting the martial arts, particularly Karate, in Namibia, I’ve realised that it takes a long time for our people to get used or rather accustomed to new sport development in the country. And that’s the reason why I am not worried about how slow sports people in the country are reacting to Taiho Jutsu and Police Taiho Jutsu. At this moment I wish you could see their reaction when they hear things like Police Taiho Jutsu: oh God; it’s like as if you were inviting them to join the national police force or something! This is the first time they are hearing the terms Taiho Jutsu, let alone Police Taiho Jutsu for Godssake, how annoying!

And this is me, Joseph Sambi, dressed for my Taiho Jutsu instruction work in Namibia, yet our people still fail to comprehend the meaning of Taiho Jutsu, let alone Police Taiho Jutsu, how frustrating is that? Anyway, let's rather move on to the real masters of Taiho Jutsu and Police Taiho Jutsu, the real founders of Taiho Jutsu... But before that, allow me to illustrate the main essence of Taiho Jutsu:

Taiho Jutsu (sport) and Police Taiho Jutsu (career self defence sport) put together is the real deal in martial arts across the world. It’s only in Taiho Jutsu where all martial arts techniques go unrestricted. The use of wrist controls, arm controls, holds and throws, firearms use, firearm retention, and disarm, locks used in Ju Jutsu, Aikido. Judo, karate. and Ninjutsu, make Taiho Jutsu an ideal art not only for law enforcement agencies but all willing individuals and martial artists themselves across the world, regardless of the dominating dojo style and style origin. This system sourced techniques from the (then) banned traditional Japanese martial arts as well as western boxing is what had become known as Taiho Jutsu (sport) and Police Taiho Jutsu (Career Self Defence). Needless to mention that Police Taiho Jutsu or simply Taiho Jutsu is a Japanese martial arts style which had been designed to help feudal police arrest hardcore armed and dangerous criminals by all means at that point in time starting from 1947 upward! But today, both Taiho Jutsu and Police Taiho Jutsu are exercised by anyone who felt like stretching up, okay?

Police Taiho Jutsu by Sensei Joseph Sambi

Ninjutsu techniques are some of the neatly sourced ultimate pinnacle form of dynamic self defence in both Taiho Jutsu and Police Taiho Jutsu. But one would first have to study the origin of Taiho Jutsu to understand how its entire techniques had been sourced from the then banned Japanese traditional martial arts styles (including western boxing in Japan) shortly after the Second World War, of which the Japanese government had to be granted permission by the SCAP (Southern Command Army Pacific) to develop a system of self defence and arrest techniques for their Police Officers who as early as 1946 had dealt hysterically with heavily armed and dangerous criminals in the whole of Japan. That’s basically the reason why Taiho Jutsu (sport) and Police Taiho Jutsu (career self defence) are both based on combination techniques of the Ju Jutsu, Aikido, Judo, karate and Ninjutsu martial arts styles, respectively.

But this is a language unknown to people in Africa since I am at this point in time the only known registered Taiho Jutsu and Police Taiho Jutsu Instructor in the whole of Africa, thanks to Sensei Brian Eustace and Sensei Ross Jackson whom I had great pleasure studying Police Taiho Jutsu and Taiho Jutsu with in England.

Nonetheless, good news is that both Police Taiho Jutsu and Taiho Jutsu are open since 1984 to anyone wanting to train along for sport, self defence, good healthy, respect, self-control, and self-confidence, regardless of gender, age, profession, and locality anywhere else in the world.

Karate is very important in Taiho Jutsu for the simple reason that the harder the resistance becomes in self defence; the handy karate would come in!

The Origin Of Slavery In Africa

But I tell you; the world we live in today is far more civilized and somewhat peaceful than it ever had been since the beginning of time. As I had mentioned in my first article regarding this topic, the origin of slavery, not only in Africa but worldwide, is traceable as far back as the beginning of time.

Long before the 7th century AD, when the Trans-Saharan and East African Slave Trades became widely known, prehistoric slavery existed as a way of life in Africa. There were many legitimate ways one could possess slaves at that point in time. Slavery in Africa, among the black Africans those days wasn't a bad thing at all! 

Families were at liberty selling their own children to pay debts or purchase livestock during hard times. Of course, land wasn't purchased by then but rather communally allocated to families according to their need.

And that’s basically where the issue of owning a large number of slaves had originated from because land distribution to families in terms of their need for more land was carried out or simply determined by the number of workers any given family could put to work on the land. So in order to get more land, one or rather a family had to employ more workers or legally obtain more slaves!

And of course, in the African context, there was no difference between ordinary workers and slaves; they were both treated with respect to a point where they even felt like family members. Traditional African practices of slavery only changed drastically at the beginning of the 7th century when Arab Muslims started exploiting the black Africans by forcefully enslaving them. And such exploitation continued running from the 7th up to the 20th century, as Arab Muslims traded for black African slaves in West, Central, and East Africa, sending over hundred thousands of slaves each year to North Africa and far distant parts of Asia.

Nonetheless, the story changed again in the 15th century when European explorers and traders arrived in West Africa, finding a lucrative slavery business going on at every corner, therefore they followed suit and started using the well-refined slave-trade networks like everybody else. As a result, the trans-Saharan and East African slave trades became eclipsed by the Atlantic slave trade to the extent where people started forgetting how the story had started! And today only well taught historians and philosophers do still remember how the story of slavery in Africa had started!

And that’s why it hurts to people who know these things, seeing and hearing people like my big sister talking about nothing but the Atlantic slave trade! And not only that, but many people today when they think of slavery, they only picture the form in which it existed in the United States and nothing more! I really can’t remember hearing anybody talking bad things about the Brazilian or any other form of slavery but the American version. After all, there is absolutely nothing the American slave traders did that the British or Brazilians, not to mention the Arab Muslims themselves didn't do in terms of abusing the Africans or rather slaves! So abhorring the Americans as if they are the only ones representing Caucasian races is somewhat misguided if I may say so!  

(To be continued)… whenever I get a chance, after all, I don’t enjoy this topic very much! I am just doing it for the sake of helping people like my big sister, that’s all!

Wetlands Paradise: Caprivi, Namibia

Not only does Sambi Tours & Shuttle CC now shuttle tourists from the Mountain Kingdom to the Wetlands Paradise but we just completed opening up a branch in Katima Mulilo, Zambezi, Namibia! It took us a while transferring automobiles and various equipment from Windhoek to our new branch in Katima Mulilo, at last we’re now operational in Zambezi Region!

See, to us who were born in this region, it’s a blessing getting a chance to come back and setup a structure of any sort here! And in my case, I've this knack for imagining the Zambezi Region as a Garden of Eden frequently mentioned in the Old Testament of the Holy Bible. I don’t know why I like visualizing the Zambezi Region as the Garden of Eden, but I sub-consciously do it as I had been doing it since I started hearing about the bible stories of Adam and Eve when I was just a little boy. I haven’t discussed this fantasy of mine with anybody yet, but I reckon I am not the only one dreaming such things about this region as the Garden of Eden.

But I guess that’s so because the region has been truly blessed with Africa’s most amazing exclusive and complex network of rivers, riverine forests, swamps, flood plains, and thick woodlands teeming with wildlife and birdlife. For instance, during these past few days that I've been here I saw thousands of elephants, buffalos, (not to mention hippos and crocodiles in the waters) and many other animals roaming the bushes freely without fear of any kind whatsoever. People and animals here know how to share life without hurting one another. It’s here where our peoples through tradition do believe that the earth owns the people; the people don’t own the earth, so the legacy human beings leave behind in that regard determines the future of the earth!

People in this region are backed up by traditions of their forefathers (Bantu Speaking Farmers) arising from as early as 3000 BC. And thanks to such traditions, people in this region are self-reliant when it comes to agriculture and various ways of not only traditional but modern living too!

Anyway, our being here has everything to do with Sambi Tours & Shuttle CC, a lucrative lawful business with enormous potential due to a high influx of tourists to Namibia. Zambezi Region is of course a small Namibian territory with a large number of tourism resorts that probably require a complete book to outline them all in one go! Briefly speaking, in the eastern part of Caprivi (Zambezi) you find lodges such as Impalila Island Lodge, Chobe River Lodge, Ntwala Island Lodge, Elephant Lodge, and Camp Chobe.

And in the central parts of Zambezi, Katima Mulilo district, you would be delighted to lodge at either Zambezi River Lodge (Protea Hotel) or indulge yourself at Caprivi River Lodge, Caprivi Houseboat Safari Lodge, Island View Lodge, Kalizo Lodge, Namwi Island Campsite & Self-catering, 3 Palms Bed & Breakfast, Fish Eagle’s Guesthouse, and countless other guesthouses all over Katima Mulilo. 

And in the west you would be treated like a king or queen at Lianshulu Bush Lodge, Mazambala Island Lodge, Namushasha Country Lodge, Susuwe Island Lodge, Nkasa Lupala Tented Lodge, Lianshulu Lodge, and Camp Kwando, to mention but a few. And surprisingly, there are times, when all the above mentioned lodges (region-wide) and guest houses are full to capacity, thanks to tourists vacating in the Zambezi! 

But guess what; all such tourists traveling and vacating in the region have got to be shuttled from one place to the other, and that’s where Sambi Tours & Shuttle do come in! We shuttle not only tourists in such basic context but everybody, local passengers and all sorts of foreigners included, and we do it with great inclination because we love our work. We wake up each morning with great anticipation for what the day holds up in store for us!

This is how our staff, particularly drivers do dress whenever on duty. I am really proud of a specialized service we render to our clients at Sambi Tours & Shuttle in the rest of Namibia. And for your information, it’s one of our company policies to shuttle clients privately in comfort without exhibiting their pictures on social networks. Even our drivers aren't supposed to be visibly publicized on social networks like this! I only did it because I am appearing in the picture, of course. But remember that such policy has got nothing to do with the law governing the tourism board of Namibia, it's only we at Sambi Tours & Shuttle who value the privacy of our clients!

Well, I’ll update you again whenever I can, but I wouldn't count on it if I were you! I am so busy here that at times I barely find time to eat my food nicely with time. 

See, I like spending up to two (2) hours eating my food slowly, but not here, there is no time for such luxuries, no time for playing games on the internet either! Anyway, keep well until next time, all right!!

Slavery And The Wages Of Slavery

Historians and philosophers of the world have been working continuously harder for the past forty years now to tell the story of how slavery had started and also how it ended in what’s briefly phrased as the rise and fall of slavery. As a philosopher myself, I made it my mission to read each and every article written on the subject and I am glad to say that indeed this matter of slavery has been finalized and amicably put to rest.

Unfortunately given what I know about how hurt my people in Africa are regarding this matter, even I have got to choose words carefully when writing anything pertaining to this topic because as far as the Africans are concerned, it isn't over yet! According to them, this isn't something you just shake hands on, saying it’s over; hence we all should just forgive one another and forget what had happened! 

Oh yes, both the sub-Saharan and Atlantic slavery that had run from 1441 to 1888 may be over but how do you put an end to the physical and mental sufferings of the descendants of the estimated 11 million enslaved Africans who were forced to cross the Atlantic Ocean to their New World destinations? You can’t just tell them to stop being poor and sick in the head and rather start living healthily like everybody else, can you? They are genetically sick from horrible past unpleasant experiences and there is absolutely nothing anybody can do to help them get better since it’s in their blood, it’s like a curse or something! It works involuntarily on their nerves and in their lives to the point where bad things just happen to them whether they like it or not!  Many of them have died under mysterious conditions and the lucky ones are serving life jail sentences for crimes they committed beyond their control due to the spell hovering over them arising from what had happened to their forefathers. 

Nonetheless, long story short, the wages of slavery is basically a curse which attacks the physical body and mind to a point where one under such a spell have got no control over his or her life. Therefore, the worst mistake anybody can make is telling such a person to grow up and start living a normal life like everybody else for Godssake!  Well, I have learnt a lot from my big sister about the symptoms of slavery illness and for that reason; I've made it my mission in life to engineer a solution to this problem, a solution that would most likely put this matter to rest once and for all! Of course, I don’t need to be reimbursed for such a solution because I engineered it for the common good of humanity in general. After all, it’s my people in Africa who are suffering from the wages of slavery illness, so getting reimbursed for creating a solution that would benefit all human beings on earth is the last thing on my mind. 

Evidently I wouldn't approve the idea that all Africans in Africa and those abroad should be reimbursed for what had happened to their forefathers with regards to suppression or rather slavery in particular! After all, what’s the point of compensating this generation while the next generation a century from now on would also demand to be reimbursed for the same thing? For that reason, if I were high up in a position to suggest or rather put forward my solution to this problem of slavery and its wages, I would demand that every given country on earth should have a therapeutic centre or two, where not only African folks, but everybody suffering from the wages of slavery would go to for a free mental treatment without being subjected to harmful medication as though they were really mentally gone! 

The war veterans have got such sanatoria in some countries, and so why is it that such facilities are not afforded the descendants of the people who had been made slaves during the modern times? Yet modern slavery is still going on to this day, which means that the victims and their relatives therefore need counsel which they generally can’t afford under normal conditions since each and every shrink in town needs to be paid upfront! (To be continued)… and please, in the meantime, feel free to leave a comment concerning supporting or opposing my views on this topic, I am really open to criticism if you like! 

Oh I nearly forgot to mention that I am going on a business mission to some place far away from Windhoek, so it’ll take me a while before I get a chance to write something pertaining to this subject. But thanks to a well-developed infrastructure in my country, Namibia, that regardless of wherever I go in the country, I’d still have access to the internet and mobile telephone communication, so feel free to engage me anytime you feel like chatting online or over mobile phone, okay!
